Tektite/Vietnamite Specimens
Tektites are small, pebble-like glassy objects of Earth material that have been melted by meteorite impact,
splashed up into our atmosphere, and fell back to Earth again under gravity. They often acquire aerodynamic shapes when they
partially melt on their return journey. Their name comes from the Greek word 'tektos', meaning 'molten.' The tektites
that I have for sale came from the Indo-chinese strewn field and were collected in Vietnam.
